The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I'm in South Carolina & can't fit it in the car or in the house (unless I wanted to end up living in it.) Please someone buy it and tell the world if that bit behind the grill is a funny cloth, or an array of little tiny horns.

I asked the seller to send me the following photos to see if the tone arm was correct. The needle certainly hits the right spot.

Thought some of you might like to know. Unfortunately he’s literally all the way across the state from me. Somebody buy this so I will quit obsessing over buying a machine that I neither need nor have room for.

He further said "Cloth, not tiny horns". FYI

I was curious about the spot under the lid to see if it could give any idea of a maker. I asked the seller for a photo sadly nothing, if it had a decal or anything its been long gone.

I had the concept it's home made, but very well done, it has american supplier tonearm that pop up on other off-brands like Vitanola. It's about a three hour trip for me in middle TN, I don't have a great interest but if any other members do, just let me know.

It’s not a far drive for me. 2 hours at most, but I don’t have the money or the room

I wonder how low he would go on price

I have been in contact with the seller. I am still unsure if I can purchase the machine. But I thought I would share some more pics
The motor kind of reminds me of a Brunswick motor?

This really is an interesting machine.... but it doesn’t sound as good as it looks
